BEYOND WORDS

SOMATICS | WRITING COMMUNITY

Somatic & Creative Writing as Therapeutic Inquiry

A weekly space to write, connect and be in body.

Our amazing global community meets every Tuesday via Zoom.

“Welcome to a place where breakthroughs arrive in unexpected ways

a moment that may ripple out

softly shaping days.”

A consideration

I feel that writing from an honest and embodied space touches places AI never can or will.

I feel the hearts behind the words, the touch point within and through the body that we meet, dissolving age, norms and context.

It is a sacred practice, and I’m committed to preserving it.

A practical guide

Each session we will begin with a short somatic practice (accessible for all bodies) and then journey into both prompted and free creative writing exercises.

There is space for intuition to unfold, no two workshops will be the exact same - I enjoy both freedom and form.

Sharing of writings and open dialogue will be optional.

    • It is an embodied way to create coherence between inner experience and outer expression.

    • Writing is a form of self-care - a simple and consistent ritual which feels available each day - regardless of energy levels.

    • My clearest vision came through putting pen to paper - or shortly after.

    • I experience deeper connection to my intuition and wisdom.

    • I become more energetically responsive to life, moment to moment.

    • I connect to ALL the parts of myself- the parts unknown, the parts forgotten.

    • I experience SOMA - body-mind connection; a non-movement practice for psychosomatic inquiry.

    • Every Tuesday

    • 10am PT / 1pm EST / 6pm BST / 7pm CEST

Writings from the Community

  • "If I let myself love fully, how beautiful I would be. Weaving a rainbow within of intimacy. If I let myself love fully, I would express oceans of vulnerability. I would not be afraid of what others might see, accepting all parts of me - the shadows and the light, all my archetypes. If I let myself love fully, I would finally be free, connecting to the they, the he and the she - all woven together. All of these parts are me."

    —by Dane, US

  • "Gently finding my rhythm. Swaying my hips from left to right, slow and present, with no need to rush - just me and my breath. My rhythm, my pace. No clock in my bones, no race in my blood. This filigree portal opens, guiding me into sensuality and trust. Guiding me deeper into my body, deeper into now. Nothing to chase. Just this pulse, this sway. I am not being chased by time. This is my dance. I choose to align. Fully here. Soft. Alive."

    —by Mariam, Germany

  • "An escape, a dance, a subtle notion, a breath so deep. Here with this heartbeat. Here in this moment of life, Silence speaks louder than any sound. The rhythm, the flow, the echo of vibrations. I’m feeling it. I’m sensing it. No words needed. Just presence and pure consciousness meeting my breath. Now."

    —by Annika, Austria

  • "Imperfection says you are learning. You are a moving kaleidoscope, a brilliance in progress. And as an artist needs each scrunched up verse to lead them to the masterpiece, so you do need all of your forms, the innocence; the ignorance; the wild and yet motionless storms. You are unique: your life an imperfect string of perfect stories. You wonderful human you."

    - by Daisy, UK

  • "When I feel myself forcing: Can I return to a question? When did I become more knowledgeable than nature? Wiser than the water? What in this sacred ecosystem is worth me pushing without permission? Placing or taking without taking the moment to ask.. What is truly alive in this garden.. right now?"

    - by Jamie, US

  • "Writing can be movement, too. Expression it is. Let it be your way of painting. Your way of creating. Your way to express on paper what the mouth could not form. Where the body got frozen. Where the sound got blocked. Let your pen sail the ocean of pages, the waves of ink. Allow your letters to be dancers. To be free. Beyond logic. Beyond words. A gesture of enjoyment. A gesture of Joy. Finally. And yet, just a Beginning."

    - by Agnes, Germany

  • "If I knew the veil to be thin… I’d believe in every move I made and let go of the need to win. I would integrate myself without fitting in. I would stop seeking truth because it’s already there, floating in every molecule in the air. I would know, and so would you. We would look into each other‘s eyes, and know it’s true."

    - by Monica, US

Voices from the Community

“You are such a beautiful soul. Wow. The way you create magic in everything you facilitate is a true gift to enjoy. Thank you 🙏🏼 I look forward to our sessions every week! They’re like pockets of magic. Thank you for the time, energy and creativity you put into curating and birthing such a gift of a space ✨.”

“Being part of this weekly space is such a blessing. It is an anchor to know that I am meeting myself - all of me - at least once a week in community, where I can connect to both body and mind, and even beyond. It’s deeply nourishing and always tender medicine to my heart.”

Annika, Austria

“The kindness prompts have been working their way through me this week. It’s been pretty fascinating and continues to leave me with lots of questions. Seems to me the degree to which I can offer the gnarliest parts of, ultimately myself, a seat at the table is the degree to which I can extend kindness when it feels like a challenging choice.”

Jamie, US
